of electromagnetic interference, such as loudspeakers or the
base units of cordless telephones.

❏ Unplug the printer and refer servicing to qualified service
personnel under the following conditions:
The power cord or plug is damaged; liquid has entered the
printer; the printer has been dropped or the cabinet damaged;
the printer does not operate normally or exhibits a distinct
change in performance.
❏ If you plan to use the printer in Germany, observe the
following:
To provide adequate short-circuit protection and overcurrent protection for this printer, the building installation
must be protected by a 16 Amp circuit breaker.
Bei Anschluß des Druckers an die Stromversorgung muß
sichergestellt werden, daß die Gebäudeinstallation mit einem
16 A-Überstromschalter abgesichert ist.
A Few Precautions
When using the printer
❏ Do not put your hand inside the printer or touch the ink
cartridges during printing.
❏ Do not move the print head by hand; otherwise you may
damage the printer.
❏ Always turn the printer off using the P power button. When
this button is pressed, the P power light flashes briefly then
goes off. Do not unplug the printer or turn off the power to
the outlet until the P power light stops flashing.
❏ Before transporting the printer, make sure the print head is in
the home (far right) position and the ink cartridges are in
place.

When handling the ink cartridges
❏ Keep ink cartridges out of the reach of children. Do not allow
children to drink or otherwise handle the cartridges.
❏ If ink gets on the skin, wash it off with soap and water. If it
gets in the eyes, flush them immediately with water.
❏ Do not shake an ink cartridge; this can cause leakage.
❏ Install the ink cartridge immediately after you remove it from
its package. Leaving the cartridge unpacked for a long time
before use may result in reduced print quality.
❏ Once you install an ink cartridge, do not open the clamp or
remove the cartridge except to replace it with a new one. The
cartridge may become unusable otherwise.
❏ Do not use an ink cartridge beyond the date printed on the
cartridge carton. For best results, use up the ink cartridges
within six months of installing them.
❏ Do not dismantle the ink cartridges or try to refill them. This
could damage the print head.
When choosing a place for the printer
❏ Place the printer on a flat, stable surface that is larger than the
printer. The printer will not operate properly if it is tilted or
at an angle.
❏ Avoid places subject to rapid changes in temperature and
humidity. Also keep it away from direct sunlight, strong light,
or heat sources.
❏ Avoid places subject to shocks and vibrations.
❏ Place the printer near a wall outlet where the plug can be
easily unplugged.

Replacing Ink Cartridges
Using the printer's control panel
The printer’s indicator lights will inform you when it is time to
obtain a replacement ink cartridge and when it is time to replace
an empty cartridge.
This table describes the status of the lights on your printer and
the actions you need to take.
Lights
Action
f B
Obtain a replacement black ink cartridge
(S020187).
o B
Replace the empty black ink cartridge.
f A
Obtain a replacement color ink cartridge
(S020193).
o A
Replace the empty color ink cartridge.
o = on, f = flashing
c
Caution:
❏ EPSON recommends the use of genuine EPSON ink
cartridges. Other products not manufactured by EPSON
may cause damage to your printer not covered by EPSON's
warranties.
❏ Leave the old cartridge installed in the printer until you have
obtained a replacement. Otherwise, ink remaining in the
print head nozzles may dry out.
Note:
If the ink runs out, you cannot continue printing until you replace the
empty cartridge, even though the other ink cartridge still contains ink.
To replace an ink cartridge using the printer’s control panel,
follow these steps.

Checking the Print Head Nozzles
If you find that the printed image is unexpectedly faint or dots in
the printed image are missing, you may be able to solve these
problems by checking the print head nozzles.
You can check the print head nozzles from your computer with
the Nozzle Check utility in the printer software, or from the
printer itself by using the printer’s control panel buttons.
Note:
Do not start the Nozzle Check utility while printing is in progress;
otherwise your printout may be marred.
Using the Nozzle Check Utility
For Windows users
1. Access the printer software window.
2. Click the Utility tab, then click the Nozzle Check button.
3. Follow the messages on your screen.
For Macintosh users
1. Access the Page Setup dialog box.

If the nozzle check page does not print satisfactorily, for
example, if any segment of the printed lines is missing, there
is a problem with the printer. This could be a clogged ink
nozzle or a misaligned print head. See the next section for
details on cleaning the print head. For information on aligning
the print head, see “Aligning the Print Head” on page 41.
Cleaning the Print Head
If you find that the printed image is unexpectedly faint or dots in
the printed image are missing, you may be able to solve these
problems by cleaning the print head, which ensures that the
nozzles are delivering ink properly.
You can clean the print head from your computer with the Head
Cleaning utility in the printer software, or from the printer itself
by using the printer’s control panel buttons.
Note:
❏ Print head cleaning uses both color and black ink. To avoid wasting
ink, clean the print head only if print quality declines.
❏ Use the Nozzle Check utility to confirm that the print head needs to
be cleaned. This saves ink.
❏ When the B or A ink out light is flashing or on, you cannot clean
the print head. Replace the appropriate ink cartridge first.
❏ Do not start the Head Cleaning or Nozzle Check utility while
printing is in progress; otherwise your printout may be marred.

Using the control panel buttons
1. Make sure that the P power light is on and that both the B
and A ink out lights are off.
Note:
If the B or A ink out light is flashing or on, you cannot clean the
head, and this operation will start the ink cartridge replacement
procedure. If you do not want to replace an ink cartridge at this
moment, press the R cleaning button to return the print head to
its home position.
2. Hold down the R cleaning button for three seconds.
The printer starts cleaning the print head and the P power
light begins flashing. Print head cleaning takes about one
minute to complete.
c
Caution:
Never turn off the printer while the P power light is flashing.
Doing so may damage the printer.
3. When the P power light stops flashing, print a few lines from
a document to confirm that the head is clean and to reset the
cleaning cycle.
If print quality hasn’t improved after repeating this procedure
four or five times, turn the printer off and leave it alone overnight.
Then do the head cleaning again.

If the print quality still has not improved, one or both of your ink
cartridges may be old or damaged and may need to be replaced.
To replace an ink cartridge before it is empty, see “Replacing an
Old or Damaged Ink Cartridge” in the online Reference Guide. If
print quality remains a problem after replacing the ink cartridges,
contact your dealer.
Note:
To maintain print quality, we recommend turning on the printer for at
least one minute every month.
Aligning the Print Head
If you notice a misalignment of vertical lines, you may be able to
solve this problem from your computer using the Print Head
Alignment utility in your printer software.
Note:
Do not start the Print Head Alignment utility while printing is in
progress; otherwise your printout may be marred.
For Windows users
1. Make sure paper is loaded in the sheet feeder.
c
Caution:
Use paper at least 210 mm (8.27 inches) wide; for example,
A4 size paper loaded short edge first. Otherwise, the print
head will spray ink directly onto the platen.
2. Access the printer software window. If you need instructions,
see “Accessing the printer software” in the online Reference
Guide.
